Yes. It could also be almost anything else. I'm sorry, but we can't tell you much of anything when you just post a photo or 2 & give no details at all. I mean, it also looks like you could have burned yourself or rubbed until blisters formed. We have no idea where on the body this is. Basically you've given zero information.

Sorry I didn't give info. This was near my elbow. It doesn't come up very often. It only comes up near my elbows until recently I had a small part on my back. Starts out as itchy small bumps. The liquid inside appears to be clear. From what I've seen online it sounds like it may be DH. So I was just wondering what y'all thought. I know it's not from a burn or scratch.

Consider getting a celiac blood test.  It is a good place to start and might be easier than getting a skin biopsy  which must be done by a DH-savvy dermatologist.  The blood test can be done by any doctor.

      Make up. Is Mary Kay gluten-free?

      By Mynx · Posted

      I have done some research about MK and gluten. I found a site that lists all the products that have am ingredient derived from gluten and what it is. The problem is I don't know how old the information is. I used some Laura Geller make up and had a severe skin reaction. My face is red, has non-pimple raised spots on it and my face burns. I need a makeup line that is gluten-free. One I can trust.  Thank you!!

      Still unsure.....

      By badastronaut · Posted

      I didn't notice a lot of difference, if any. But after only one pill I don't expect miracles. I'm also recovering from a pretty bad cold so that's a factor that will have some influence too I guess. I'll keep trying the Thiamine in the coming days and will let you know if I feel improvement. Thanks for asking btw!!

      Help figuring out stomach pain

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      A multivitamin is great.  Multivitamins contain lots of trace minerals we need.  My only hesitation is that many use thiamine mononitrate which is not easily absorbed nor utilized by the human body.  Thiamine mononitrate is used because it's cheap and shelf stable.  You can add in a thiamine hydrochloride or a Benfotiamine supplement in addition to the multivitamin.   I would give a multivitamin to all the kids.  Even the ones without triggered celiac disease.  Kids do a lot of growing, even into their early twenties, and need plentiful B vitamins.  The gluten free diet can be low in the B vitamins.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted in urine if not needed.  The Recommended Daily Allowance numbers are based on minimums needed to prevent illness.  Amounts for optimal health are higher.
